Sorting the 90

[Alfa Muppet]

Well I thought I had better get her back on the road as I can't stand her standing about not being driven any longer, it's been over a year

Started to prep the passenger side front jacking point which is the only hole I can find.



And with the rust cut out crudely




Plate on over the weekend (England v Wales tomorrow night!)

Got a second hand door latch for the passenger side from a 75 today as the current one stopped working and a brand new (used spare 2012) Mohawk tyre to match the ones on it as I slashed the side wall on my front step when moving her recently, they are only 3 years old and done less then 5000 miles. Welding tomorrow then MOT in about 2 weeks

Wipers to sort and window washers are weak, that should just about do it

Not going to win any prizes for neatness, but it is fuctional and gas tight

I don't know muppet, didn't Van Gogh do similar work hehe

Nothing a bit of grinding and seam sealer won't hide, and of course a carpet over the Top - sorted

 

[Alfa Muppet]

Hey presto



Just some paint and under seal underneath and it's all sorted

Hopefully I will put her in sometime next week, just waiting for the door latch mech to arrive, sort the central looking, washers and the make shift petrol pipe from the fuel pump to main feed pipe - this is a pain as it is a 12mm pipe that is U shaped as a moulded part and I may have to replace with copper/ steel and short link pipes as obviously the pipe is not available in original form
